Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

On top of the world kind of.
We got the Tree top Wind Mill with the Mann Smart Drive up on the Water Tower today at the 110 feet marker. Every one from this site and others have been a great help thank you all. The town of Pembroke has been behind me all the way.
Here is the turbine up and running.



Here we are on the new platform and ready to let her run.



Jim and Cris gave me a hand today. We are running the data logger and grid ties to see what we can make from this site. I see 10 to 20+ MPH at that spot all the time.
Here are some of the power charts for my Mann Made Turbine.
Steve from US-VAWT.com did the power output numbers for me.








I will post some of the wind/power data logging numbers later .
I am using a swea unit but I do not like it it is not a good match
for my turbine.

HI BOB

THAT WOULD TAKE THE AWARD FOR THE BIGGEST TOWER ON THE FORUM

You will need a real array of mills to get the best out of that one, and a supersizr one on the top.
